GLOW

Book ID/图书代码： 00500011B44827

English Summary/英文概要： What if you were fifteen, bound for a new world, about to pledge your life to someone you’d been promised to since birth, and one unexpected violent attack made survival – not love – the issue?

Out in the murky nebula lurks an unseen enemy: the New Horizon. On its way to populate a distant planet in the wake of Earth’s collapse, the ship’s crew has been unable to conceive a generation to continue its mission. They need young girls desperately, or their zealous leader’s efforts will fail. Onboard their sister ship, the Empyrean, the unsuspecting families don’t know an attack is being mounted that could claim the most important among them…

Fifteen-year-old Waverly is part of the first generation to be successfully conceived in deep space; she was born on the Empyrean, and the large farming vessel is all she knows. Her concerns are those of any teenager – until Kieran Alden proposes to her. The handsome captain-to-be has everything Waverly could ever want in a husband, and with the pressure to start having children, everyone is sure he’s the best choice. Except for Waverly, who wants more from life than marriage – and is secretly intrigued by the shy, darkly brilliant Seth.

But when the Empyrean faces sudden attack by their assumed allies, they quickly find out that the enemies aren’t all from the outside.

Glow is the most riveting series debut since The Hunger Games, and promises to thrill and challenge readers of all ages.

齊倫(Kieran)和薇芙莉(Waverly)是唯一一對在太空深處，科學家成功在星空者號上孕育而生的男女。兩人天生就註定被配在一起。為了使地球上還存活的人類還保有求生本能的希望，第一位誕生的齊倫，也被任命為與地球聯繫的通訊員。
星空者號和新地平線在宇宙中航行多年，從未有任何交集。但是在新地平線上的科學家，卻始終無法孕育出新生命，眼看任務似乎將宣告失敗，新地平線號的船長卻想出一項殘酷的恐怖計畫。

Reviews
"Utterly engrossing. Dinner went uncooked, children were left to fend for themselves, and dog howled all night, because I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN."---Lauren Myracle, New York Times bestselling author of ttyl and Shine 勞倫‧米瑞柯

“Waverly’s initiative and intellect ensure that even as a prisoner she is far from a damsel in distress.... Desire to find out which of the proactive characters’ bold moves end in disaster will leave readers clamoring for the next installment of this space saga.”---Kirkus

“GLOW has an ingenious, twisty, heart-stopping plot, and characters that are in turns both sympathetic and sinister all the way to the last page – I don’t know who I can trust, and I love it!”---Lisa McMann, NYT bestselling author of the WAKE trilogy 麗莎．麥克曼

"With a compelling plot and complicated characters you love to hate and hate to love, Glow will capture readers." ---April Henry, New York Times bestselling author of Girl, Stolen and Learning to Fly

"GLOW has it all – intrigue, action, suspense and romance set against a jaw-dropping futuristic backdrop. Amy Kathleen Ryan has woven a thought-provoking and compelling novel that readers will be hard-pressed to put down. I couldn’t! This is a thrilling read.”---Courtney Summers, author of Fall for Anything and Cracked up to Be
